At age twenty-eight, when Tom Osborne agreed to join Bob Devaney's
full-time coaching staff at the University of Nebraska, he resolved
to be a head coach by the time he reached age thirty-five. Little
did he know that this goal would chart his course toward becoming
one of the nation's premier football coaches. Six years later in
1972, Devaney named Osborne as head coach of the Nebraska
Cornhuskers. In high school and college, Osborne had been an
outstanding athlete in his own right. He went on to play
professional football and to earn his master's and doctorate
degrees in educational psychology. Throughout all these years in
sports and academics, he was developing his unusual and inspiring
philosophy of coaching, which above all emphasizes the process of
athletics. In "More Than Winning," Osborne gives an in-depth
personal account of his life--the forces that shaped his values,
his own accomplishments in sports, and his experiences as a coach
at Nebraska. He describes his philosophy of coaching, shares
personal perspectives on football greats, and gives his view of key
Nebraska games up through the 1984 Orange Bowl.
